A gravel bike is the perfect combination of a road and mountain bike. Thanks to the comfortable geometry of the KROSS Esker 1.0 adjusted to long-distance rides, it will become your favourite excursion bike. And not only then! Because in fact our gravel bike defies the usual patterns and redefines the idea of a machine suitable for commuting, road racing or light terrain. See why Polish cyclists fell in love with gravel bikes, with our Esker being the leader.
We have fitted the KROSS Esker 1.0 with equipment that will be perfect for both asphalt and off-road riding. Thanks to the road bike Shimano Claris gears and the FSA Tempo crank we managed to get a drivetrain that will enable fast and trouble-free riding in all conditions. Eight gears with a double crank provide a wide range of shifting. They will enable the cyclist to ride quickly on flat sections and also to climb steep hills. Braking is handled by the Tektro MD-C550 mechanical disc brakes, which not only offer great braking power, but are also easy in maintenance. Combined with high-quality brake discs, they ensure safe and powerful braking in all, even the most unfavourable conditions.
To ensure the best riding experience, the KROSS Esker 1.0 is equipped with 28-inch wheels fitted with branded WTB Riddler tires that are 37 millimetres wide. They provide excellent riding properties in all conditions. This bike is complemented by a high-quality Selle Royal seat. The high-quality Fizik Terra Microtex wrap, which was created for gravel bikes is also worth mentioning. It not only provides excellent grip and prevents the hands from slipping, but also ensures high absorption of vibrations transferred to the arms from the ground.
The heart of the KROSS Esker 1.0 is a frame made of lite aluminium. Our technologies make this material extremely light and resistant to damage. It is complemented by an aluminium fork that provides excellent handling of the bike both on the road and on forest paths. The frame has been finished with high gloss grey and graphite paint. This solution does not only look attractive but it also makes it easier to keep the bike clean, preventing stains after washing.
